The truth is when I asked about this rim cap they actually lie to me where they told me I have to take out my nat and bolt of my tyre to put it in. I message the mother and the son regarding this. They initially charged me RM20 for the installation for the rim cap but manage to bargain till rm10. I never thought the rim cap is just cap on and install only but guess they lie about that too.

Conversation with the Max's mother:



Conversation with Max:




As you can see this is their bargaining startergy. They are both beside each other and they both playing the good cop bad cop. One higher the price another lower it. But come to think of it does it worth RM20 for installation for a rim cap? This is how much they are being dishonest to their customer.

Also if I know this is cap on I would not have buy from them as I thought its stick to the rim with the tyre nat and bolt. Sorry for the inexperience in cars

20 to install a plastic wheel cap? money so easy to make nowdays. lulz

I had bought a few items at their Gombak branch. No issue.

There are always two sides of each story; the other side unknown.
It's hard to believe one doesn't know how and where to determine rim size for car, and then had to go to another shop to fix rim caps.

this is the type of con men that tarnishes chinese reputation in this country,
talk about bad apples..... no wonder some immigrant admit to me that they think chinese "kuat tipu".

the one u r talking is another company bro

there might be abit of misunderstandings in that conversation? I think they meant 'keluar' as in just remove the hubs (btw those are called hubs) but wierd that they didnt just help you on the spot....

while i dont think they are completely truthful (i mentioned my experience my 1st reply) and are alittle arrogant, i do think their prices are pretty decent, its really not cutthroat yet....

edit: how come you didnt know how to replace the hubs, not a complicated thing to do... mau replace tyre also kene know these things yo...

TS asked "perlu ambil nat kluar"....to which the seller answered "ambil keluar dan letak"

In any case, for a simple job of snapping the rim cover on to the rim need to charge RM10-20?

from my previous messages with them... the way they reply is also one kind... not clear instructions ==" half way through i thought , nvm ill just come over and check it out myself.... reach there, they say ohh that one no more already.... i had even specifically asked if they had stock, they said yes got, when i asked why they replied that they had stock, they told me, they have others as well.... alamak bangs head at that point

like calling dominoes to ask if they have durian pizza, getting a positive answer, then reaching there and finding out that they only have lemon pizzas

Hi thank you very much for pointing it out. I believed what you is correct and I already updated the latest picture with the other family members face which are blurred. Thanks for the advice .

Hi, after messaging her that time I did call her to double confirm and she told me that the nat are required to be taken out to install the cover. She was also surprise where she didn't thought I was a Chinese. That is why at first i was thinking RM20 for installation its maybe okay because you need to drill out the nat and put the cover in. But little do i know when I was there its actually a cap on cover. I already message Max and manage to bargain to RM 10 but then again I had no idea is a cap on wheel cover if not I would have done it myself. Then again I apologize because I have very little knowledge about cars and I expected them to help me where they are actually selling them.

Even till to very end where he told me to install another place( his friend's place) I still thought that it requires the nat to be remove to be install.

i work in an automotive part shop before when i was in highschool. This is the boss tatic to get you to go to their shop and spend. eventhough they don't have stock, they will say got, "mari la, u mari, tengok, kalao ngam, u angkat"

same shit. same standard line. Never fall for this.

Cant even open own wheel cover.

What happens when u have a puncture?

lol no choice anyway, one way i had to go there anyway. Ohh well far as im concerned, im not going there again lazada (shipps stuff from china now) has what i need, no need to pay shipping/petrol, no need to drag my butt out the house(other than to collect from the delivery guy), cheaper too.. thats a win to me hahaha

I can see whats going on here..

Seller's perspective;
Person asking for wheel covers, and willing to spend $ on wheel covers, must be easy target ler...

Not saying TS is asking to be conned, but we live in an unfair world..so I'm not surprised this happened..and I feel sorry that you had to hand over your money to this kind of sellers, look at his face also I wont trust him with RM0.10 of my money lol

I guess a harsh lesson learn for TS, better make use of FnF section by asking before buying.

PS; pls dont waste money on wheel covers..please.

bro... he already explained many times why he didn't do it himself... lol....

Max Corp - Side Still Plate RM 100 + 50 Installation Feees = 150

Taobao - Side Still Plate Estimate RM50.85 (maybe can find cheaper seller) + installation fee unknown

https://world.taobao.com/item/21900779080.h...9832.0.0.eQCc5J


can see a doubled price compare to taobao... it is the same product, hence if anyone want purchase car accessories can just order from internet

Hi, good question. I know how to open the wheel cover but what I was told that the wheel cover they are selling me requires the nat to be removed to install. That is why I believe them which they initially charge me RM20 for the installation. What I didn't know that one of the workers in other workshop told me that there is no wheel cover that can be install that way but only clip on.

Only wish to highlight the above. Willing seller, willing buyer. You can agree to it, or you can install elsewhere. That is not being dishonest. If he told you RM20, then when you go there, he says it's RM30, then you have the right to say so.

Many are grateful that you share an awful experience so that others may be careful with their own transaction, be it at this shop or another. But don't make defamatory statement just because you're upset. Be factual, state what is, not what isn't.

First rule of being a smart consumer.

Never, never ever trust a salesperson.

Hi yes I agree that the installation price is that we both agree. But that is because one of them told me it requires the nat to be remove and install. Once again they were being dishonest when they told me that it requires the nat to be remove and also when they gave me the wrong size and design. As I reply in a post I have no complain of the installation price if it requires the nat to be remove as they claim but the truth is that it just required it to be cap on. What I state here and now are all the truth and factual as I already show most of the evidence.
